Space and scientific instrumentation

To better understand humanity’s place in the universe, hunt for exoplanets and search for extraterrestrial life, researchers use advanced high-tech instrumentation. For decades, TNO has developed these instruments. A technological heritage that now places us at the forefront of optical satellite communication and a space-enabled quantum internet, that will provide secure broadband connectivity across the world.

Pioneering space innovation

From pioneering climate research and satellites for observation systems to non-invasive medical research, chip manufacturing and satellite communications.

TNO launches Qu-STAR to pioneer quantum internet via space

Informatietype:: News

16 September 2024

TNO launched a new project called Qu-STAR to define the role of space in quantum information networks. The quantum internet, envisioned to connect quantum devices globally, currently faces distance limitations when relying exclusively on ground networks, restricting the exchange of quantum information to just a few hundred kilometers.
